Hello. Did you find out any solution for this error. Same issue I am facing in my website now.

Somewhere other than in django_session, some sort of session data is getting stored.
DROP DATABASE and create new database and do makemigrations and migrate - it started working for me again. Same happened on my colleague’s machine and database refresh was the only way to go.

This happens to me when I switch branches in git which (required a database migrate).

Hi. I am sorry but i did not get your point. How we can drop database and create new one. I am directly accessing Views from Azure sql server not models. So their is no use of migration and migrate. I have create connection string in models.py and using that in all views in sql querirs.
def connection_string():
conn1 = pyodbc.connect(‘DRIVER={ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server};’ +
‘SERVER=;’ +
‘DATABASE=;’ +
‘UID=;’ +
‘PWD=;’ +
‘Timeout=180’)
return conn1
somewhere like this.

I was referring to my localhost - I still haven’t deployed to our Azure account.
I deleted the database and re-created it by using python manage.py makemigrations and python manage.py migrate - this is a bad choice but this was the only solution I found.
You can pour your thoughts here which is the official github for AD.
